Breaking Kheara

Since I'm pregnant I can't ride the young horses but they need to be trained very badly so Wade has stepped up to the plate for me. I'm very proud of him and the horse since both have no clue what's going on and I have to try to teach them from the ground.

Today was the third time Wade got on Kheara and she was awesome! Nice and relaxed, listening to the aids. All we're doing at this point is walking while she learns how to steer and what whoa means but so far so good.

Field Trip!

Tanner's class had a field trip to the zoo, Wade went with them as a chaperone. He called me from the zoo to tell me that he only had Tanner and they were all by themselves so I should come meet them. I decided to pull Tristan out of school and surprise him with the zoo.

Off we went and had a great time!

It's a........

Boy.

I think Wade is the only one that is excited. I think I'm in shock and the boys are disappointed, they REALLY wanted a sister.

I asked Tanner if he was ok with having a little brother and he said " No, it's just going to be more crazy here now".

I then said "Well maybe he'll be really quiet and calm" and Tanner's answer was:

"or a blood sucking killer like me and Tristan".

And this is why I'm making a reservation for the insane asylum!

Oh Hai!

He's so sweet.

We were all at Tristan's baseball game the other day and Tanner was eating a licorice rope. He very sweetly asks Wade with his big blue eyes, "Dad, would you like a bite of my licorice?"

Wade says yes and takes a bite. As soon as Wade bites the licorice Tanner bursts into hysterical laughter. So Wade asks what's so funny and Tanner tells him he put the licorice up his nose!

Wade then looks at Tanner closely and notices that yes, there is red dye coming out of his nose from the licorice.

Oh, the joy of boys.

Reggie's a daddy.

Tali had her foal at 2 am this morning and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. This is Reggie's first foal and I think he outproduced himself, I'm over the moon! Baby seems healthy (vet comes out tomorrow am just to make sure) and he's SUPER friendly. LOVE HIM!
